I don't think an attorney would advise you not to post an unequivocal denial on a public, industry related messageboard. It is afterall your reputation you're defending to your peers. I have no doubt that the statement above is FROM their attorney, specifically with messageboards in mind.

However, I would think MOST lawyers would frown on any FURTHER postings or replies on the matter.

It happens all the time on the news... "I would like to publicly deny these charges. Beyond that, I have no comment."
